My next door neighbor brought me these yesterday and we don't have any idea what they are or how old they are. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks! Allison

They look to me like they might be Buff Orpingtons. I am not very good at guessing age of chickens.
 
Definitely Buff Orpingtons...we just hatched some about 9wks ago. As far as age, I would have to guess maybe 4-5 wks.
Now the next question...What is their sex? I'm thinking you have 2 pullets and 1 cockeral, just going off of the feathering. Hope that helps

I vote for buff orpingtons also. 3 - 4 wks. based on combs... I would guiess the one on left looks like a girl. one in the middle, like a boy .. hard to say about the one facing back.

Enjoy.. they grow quickly!!
